Description
When we are at our best, the sun seems to shine brighter, and there's a bounce in our step. We also have moments that feel quite the opposite. To address the ups and downs of life and work, this module explores inner critics, self-compassion and how to practice empathy for yourself so that you can be ready to lavish it on the children you serve.
Discover:
• that being human means having an inner critic
• strategies for building self-compassion and acceptance
• why self-empathy is a critical element in teaching empathy
